Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
I have had an account for a couple years and I have watched other banks fade away. When I joined Starling, I signed up through the application on my phone. It was very easy. I confirmed my identity online, with somethey help me via live chat. I can upload cheques to my account. When I am a little out of pocket, I find a few spare pennies that have been automatically saved for me with each purchase. Starling is progressive and targets the current age and that is wonderful. Older people seem to get left behind in the times. This encourages them to adapt and embrace them. It welcomes them into the new age. Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Future-forward banking

Starling really is an expert company at putting the client first. I feel that Starling is an innovative company and are always introducing new features that I never realised I needed, yet each and every feature is just so excellent and makes banking even more accessible every time. I really am very impressed by Starling’s service, as late last year I had been double charged by a business, and they would’ve gotten away with it without Starling’s super fast notifications and response which meant that I was able to challenge the person responsible before leaving the premises. I truly wish other banks would follow the standards of Starling! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

I get recommend Starling enough, it’s simplistic compared to high street bank apps. There is an abundance of features that help you reach your financial goals. Customer service is always on point and Starling is definitely leading the way on how banking should be. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

The way they provide each services are really appreciable and making their consumer comfortable on using their bank is their priority.

This is one of the bank which is really approachable for students. Their card arrives within 5 days and that too without any delays. They exactly helps me too understand my expenses and income. They automatically adds cash to spaces while i spend money so that I could set back money for rent and fees . Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
